15 LISTS Violence in the MediaLists about the goriest, bloodiest, most shockingly violent scenes and moments in film, TV, comics, graphic novels, and even children's cartoons — because in today's world, kids can see anything as long as it's not a bare breast.
Some movie spectators love violent movies simply because they're violent. However, there is a segment of the population that cannot stomach any form of cinematic violence; it makes them nauseous and uneasy. This list is designed for them. Why should film fans miss out on good violent movies just because they're squeamish? Here are some violent movies everyone can enjoy.
Quentin Tarantino is known for making violent movies. However, many of his films, like Pulp Fiction, adeptly use his signature style of mixing violence with humor. We laugh at things, like a car covered in blood and filled with brain matter, that we normally would not find funny.
This list of bloody films represents all genres from classic horror to crime to war. Even if these movies are filled with violence, it's not necessarily what makes them works of art. The Godfather is much more than gangsters battling over territory, just like Hacksaw Ridge is not just a movie about the graphic battles of World War II. Those pictures are not just violent for the sake of violence, there is heart to them, and cinematic technical excellence.
Check out those violent movies for squeamish people and more in the list below.
The mafia classic set the standard for all crime films that followed. Francis Ford Coppola's epic tells the tale of the Corleone family, led by patriarch Don Vito (Marlon Brando) and his sons (Al Pacino, James Caan), as they navigate their way through a power struggle with four other mafia families. Of course, there is violence in The Godfather (1972), but it never comes off as overtly gratuitous.
It also happens to be one of the best movies ever made, with some of cinema's finest acting performances. It's a sweeping saga, a love story, and a revenge tale. And it features one of the most memorable movie juxtapositions ever: during the climactic final act, while Don Michael (Al Pacino) is baptizing his first son, Coppola cross-cuts with Don Michael's men setting up and ultimately killing the other four family heads. It is a cross between religion and death, fantasy and reality, and the world Michael wishes for his son with the world that he actually lives in. It's a violent scene for sure, but it's also a big part of what makes The Godfather a masterpiece.
Post-modern masters the Coen Brothers combine neo-noir with the western in their adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's 2005 novel of the same name. A hunter named Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin) finds a briefcase full of cash out in the desert following a drug deal gone wrong. What Moss doesn't know is that the man looking for the money, Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem), is a heartless badass intent on tracking down the briefcase. Tommy Lee Jones plays the close-to-retiring Sheriff on the trail of both men. The story cross-cuts between the three characters as good, evil, and somewhere in the middle get set to collide onscreen.
Spectators should know up front that No Country for Old Men is a violent film and its antagonist, Chigurh, even with his little-boy bowl haircut, is absolutely terrifying. However, the violence in the film is necessary for telling the story. The movie is commenting on the cruelty and brutal nature of the world. There are very few technically perfect films, but No Country for Old Men makes that short list. The writing, cinematography, sound, acting performances, directing, and editing is all top-notch. It's no surprise that the movie won four Academy Awards in 2008: Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (Bardem), Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Achievement in Cinematography.
Tony Kaye's 1998 drama about a neo-Nazi looking for redemption was heavily criticized for its use of extreme violence. One of the most troubling scenes for audiences to swallow was the infamous curb scene when Derek (Ed Norton) forces a black man, whom he had just caught vandalizing his truck, to open his mouth and place his teeth on a curb. Derek then smashes the man's head into the curb while his little brother Danny (Edward Furlong) watches from afar.
But here's the thing about this scene: we see much less than we think we see. Derek kicking the back of the man's head is filmed in extreme long shot, and then there is a quick cut back to Danny. Our minds paint the picture of what the camera doesn't show.
American History X certainly has its fair share of violence, and it is disturbing because it feels so real, especially in light of the racial tension that still plagues the world today. However, in between the four or so really violent scenes in the film, is a basic family drama of a close-knit group just trying to survive in a community filled with hate. It's easy to forget those heart-warming family moments, but they are there, and it makes American History X so much more than just a violent movie.
There's a scene in Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction (1994) where gangster Vincent Vega (John Travolta) is riding shotgun in a car being driven by his partner Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson). Riding in the backseat is an accomplice named Marvin. The men have just retrieved a briefcase for their boss, and somehow, by some miracle, escaped being shot to death.
As the two hit men are debating whether they survived because it was an act of God or some freak accident, Vincent turns to Marvin in the backseat to ask the young man what he thinks. But Vincent has a gun in his hand and it mistakenly goes off. Vincent dumbly says, "Oh man, I shot Marvin in the face."
The audience instantly erupts with laughter as blood is piled up everywhere in the car and bits of Marvin's brain matter hang from Jules's hair. So why is this violent scene so damn funny? This is Tarantino's trademark paradox and what makes so many scenes in Pulp Fiction so memorable, he is able to effectively blend violence with humor. The director has stated that one of his goals as a filmmaker is to get people to laugh at things that they normally would not find funny. So while Pulp Fiction may be riddled with violence, much of that violence is surrounded by laughter, and it makes the gore so much more palatable, even for the most queasy spectator.

Reviews of this week's CD releases
Posted: 3:00 AM CDT Thursday, Oct. 14, 2021
JOE COMPAYRE PHOTO
Bazooka Joe 204
Prairie Nilsson (Peanuts & Corn)
Here's a welcome return from an older face with a new name. Bazooka Joe 204 is the MC formerly known as John Smith, a vanguard member of P&C's Break Bread collective whose 2004 album, Pinky's Laundromat, is a bona fide classic of Winnipeg hip hop. This time out, the rapper (whose real name is Joe Compayre) has upgraded his moniker from "nobody" to "classic" with the name Bazooka Joe (harking back to the days when Bazooka bubble gum cost a penny and came with a tiny, folded three- or four-panel comic strip featuring Bazooka Joe and his Gang).
He's also slyly cast himself as a rebellious iconoclast (or at least a student of pop culture) by mimicking the infamous bathrobe cover of Harry Nilsson's Nilsson Schmilsson.
Names, visuals and backstory aside, the meat of this release is in its grooves, as it should be. Cuts such as Lookit, King Cake Baby and Art School Kidz reveal that Joe is still eminently familiar with hardscrabble life in Winnipeg's North End, painting pictures of working-class origins, payday weekends, houses full of empties, and a head full of giggles, regrets, pride and resentment.
But there's also a rueful tone to tracks such as Iowanna, Carpe Diem and The Prestige; the sense of "coulda, woulda, shoulda…" that comes to many as time passes.
As ever, P&C label boss and main producer mcenroe sets Joe's flow to his trademark low-key but always interesting beats, creating background soundscapes while letting the MC set the tone, using everything from ersatz, dub-plate versions of It's the Hard-Knock Life to '80s synths and drum machines.
Album closer The Stone is Prairie Nilsson's crowning achievement, a simply fine piece of writing that could stand alone as a short story. ★★★★ out of five

ROOTS / COUNTRY
Star-Crossed (Interscope Records/UMG Nashville)
Kacey Musgraves breaks down the breakdown of her marriage on Star-Crossed, her followup to 2018's Grammy winning Album of the Year, Golden Hour.
Musgraves delivers the story in roughly three acts of tightly woven pop/country songs: the optimism of falling in love, the sadness of drifting apart and everything that comes from the realization there is no going back.
You don't have to have suffered through a divorce to connect with the feelings Musgraves expresses about seeking and holding onto love, loss, anger and hope for a better future. She credits a guided psychedelic trip with helping her organize and execute the record.
On What Doesn't Kill Me, Musgraves gives a nod to the smash that immediately preceded this challenging, but accessible, record: "I've been to hell and back/Golden hour faded black."
On the standout track Camera Roll, Musgraves describes scrolling through old pictures on her phone and the memories they trigger.
"Chronological order and nothing but torture," she sings. "Scroll too far back that's what you get/I don't wanna see 'em but I can't delete 'em/It just doesn't feel right yet."
Who can't identify with that?
"This hookup scene ain't all that it's made out to be," she sings on another confessional, Hookup Scene.
"A pretty face might get you far/But still it can't replace the kind of real connection that I crave," she sings. "The kind we don't have anymore."
Star-Crossed is a brave and brutally honest take on her marriage to singer-songwriter Ruston Kelly that now joins the long list of records detailing breakups. It's a story of courage and honesty and a stark contrast to the warm glow of Golden Hour, with Musgraves showing a vulnerability and willingness to grow artistically that is often in short supply among artists at her level of popularity. ★★★★ out of five

Montréal Jazz Trio
Montréal Jazz Trio (Odd Sound)
This album from the Montréal Jazz Trio — Steve Amirault on piano, Adrian Vedady on bass and Jim Doxas on drums — is a wonderful reminder that the jazz trio format developed many years ago is appropriately still alive and well. This means that the piano is the lynchpin here (think of Bill Evans), while the bass and drums are more than window dressing but will be seen as part of a piano trio. Having said that, Vedady and Doxas are terrific musicians, and are in no way subservient.
The music here is a neat mix of original compositions, mainly by Amirault, and some very contemporary covers of jazz standards. The opening track, All Those Lovely Things, is built on the changes of All The Things you Are. The trio's version of Take The "A" Train begins with a wild groove that reminded me of the excruciatingly hilarious version by Darlene and Jonathan Edwards. (If you don't know what that means, I urge you to check out Darlene and Jonathan Edwards, who got a 48-star review from Downbeat.) This trio has much fun with the tune. Amirault's Empath, on the other hand, is a lovely ballad that has a gentle touch. Vedady's tune Wray is a tribute to the late Canadian jazz pianist Wray Downes.
Throughout, the music has a familiar but challenging style. While not doing anything "new" in one sense, the album gives pleasure within a familiar context without simply mailing it in. Often we jazz reviewers perhaps understandably celebrate the innovators and challengers. Yet jazz has many branches, and this album celebrates one of them with real skill and intent. Long live the jazz trio. ★★★★ out of five

Chopin Nocturnes
Stephen Hough (Hyperion)
Following his all-Schumann release in September, multi-award-winning pianist Stephen Hough celebrates his upcoming 60th birthday (Nov. 22) with a new two-CD set of Chopin's complete Nocturnes.
What makes these particularly memorable is Hough's unabashedly operatic approach to each piece. He describes in his own liner notes the deep love the Romantic composer — hailed as the "poet of the piano" — had for the vocal art form. Each nocturne is brought to life with the expressiveness of a colouratura aria, including soaring bel canto melodies, a flexible rubato and florid ornamentation that shimmers above a steady left-hand accompaniment.
Of particular note is Hough's choice to use several authentic variants of embellishment, including a second version of Op. 9, No. 2 derived from handwritten notes in students' scores. This provides not only a fascinating journey into the composer's creative process itself but also a fresh take on these enduring classics.
Several works are performed at a relatively quicker pace that avoids any temptation toward the maudlin: Op. 37, No 1, Op. 48, No. 1 and the subsequent Op. 48, No. 2. Others particularly showcase the pianist's renowned singing tone and lyrical phrasing, underpinned by a dramatic sensibility as heard during Op. 27, No. 1 and its companion piece, Op. 27, No. 2.
Highlights include a particularly haunting 'Nocturne,' KKIVa/16, as well as Nocturne in C minor, KKIVb/8 with Hough's quicksilver runs and embellishments sending chills down the spine. The final offering, Op. 62, a set appearing as a summation of Chopin's musical legacy further displays the soloist's sensitive artistry so clearly in tune with these masterpieces, while revealing his own poetic soul. ★★★★ ½ out of five

The six Section Managers, together with the Chair, Secretary/Treasurer, Past Chair, Test Materials Advisor and Membership Chair, form the working group that runs the affairs of the Section.
Informative and interesting programs are the backbone of the Section, and the most important responsibility of a Section Manager is to arrange at least one meeting program each year.
At a Section planning meeting held shortly after the new board takes office on July 1, the Chair, who in the Detroit Section also functions as Program Chair, will discuss program ideas with Managers and set up a schedule of meeting topics and dates and the manager responsible for each.
Managers may be assigned to coordinate meetings even if the program topic is not in a Manager's particular area of specialization. Appropriate assistance should be sought from, and given by, other officers and Section members during the meeting planning process.
Arrange for the speaker(s). Make sure they are aware of SMPTE guidelines. Obtain a summary description of the program and a biography of the speaker. SMPTE provides a form for this purpose.
Arrange for the meeting venue and refreshments. Get a map to the location and check details such as parking, access and security. Determine A/V requirements and arrange for them if needed.
Locate a restaurant in the near vicinity of the meeting venue and make reservations for the managers' dinner. Make sure the speaker knows that he/she is invited to dinner as a guest of SMPTE.
Communicate all details of the meeting to the Secretary/Treasurer in time to be included in the meeting notice.
Keep the Section Chair informed of details and status. Assist with setup, hosting and cleanup at the meeting.
Write a brief meeting report describing the highlights of the technical program for inclusion in the Secretary/Treasurer's meeting report, which is published in the SMPTE Journal.
Managers will also be asked to participate in planning of any special events, such as regional conferences or joint meetings.
Dinner prior to SMPTE meetings is open to all and is normally "Dutch Treat", meaning the check is divided equally among those attending. The speaker is included in the tally and his/her dinner is paid for by SMPTE, through the Secretary/Treasurer.
Select a restaurant that is close to the meeting venue, can provide a fairly quiet place for a party of 12-15, and has a reasonably-priced menu with a variety of items. If in doubt about restaurants in the area, ask your contact at the venue to suggest a place, or ask another officer or manager for ideas. You might want to ask the restaurant to fax you their menu, visit its website, or even visit in person, to help you decide.
Initially make the reservation for 12, give your name and phone number, and have them note the group name, SMPTE, on the reservation. Tell them that the count will probably vary and that we may pick up a couple more (or a couple fewer).

The truth is, our realities are partially based upon our experiences and perceptions. Since experiences and perceptions differ, our realities can as well. This is true even when we are in a shared space and creating the reality together. In the relationship, it is important to hold space for the shared vision as well as the individual realities. The combination of those realities contribute to the shared vision.

Canada is beginning talks with the US and Boeing about purchasing 18 F/A-18E/F Superhornets to shore up the country's aging fleet of CF-18s, the Canadian defense ministry said Tuesday. The ministry will "immediately explore" buying the Superhornets while simultaneously launching a competition for a fleetwide replacement for its CF-18s, which have been service-extended already and are more than a decade past their planned retirement. The competition could take five years to conclude. Canada is a partner on Lockheed Martin's F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, but the Trudeau Administration has said it can neither afford nor wait for the F-35, costs of which have risen since Canada joined the multinational partnership that developed and is building the fighter. Defense Minister Harjit Sajjan said Canada will remain part of the JSF program as a partner, but won't necessarily buy the jets. He also said it would be "imprudent" to delay action in starting to replace Canada's CF-18s any longer, because of Canada's NATO and NORAD responsibilities.

Wanaka's Wallis family has been struck by a second helicopter tragedy in less than three months. The Otago Daily Times understands pilot Nick Wallis was one of three people killed in a helicopter crash near Wanaka Airport this morning.
Less than three months since the Wallis family farewelled one of four brothers after a helicopter crash in Wanaka, they have they lost another brother.
Nick Wallis, along with two Department of Conservation staff, died yesterday in a fiery crash when their aircraft plunged into a paddock near Wanaka Airport.
Conditions were fine and good for flying, with light winds and sunny, clear skies as the aircraft set off on a mission to cull tahr.
People are now questioning how the leased chopper fell from the air in the catastrophic accident.
Wallis was the youngest son of aviation entrepreneur Sir Tim Wallis who pioneered the South Island's live deer recovery and created a helicopter operation empire.
In July, Sir Wallis farewelled his son Matthew who was recovered from Lake Wanaka two days after he crashed into the lake.
Matthew was farewelled by 1500 people at a service held in a marquee at Wanaka Airport on July 30, nine days after his death. He was 39-years-old.
Yesterday his brother Nick died about 1500m from the airport when the Hughes 500 helicopter he was flying crashed shortly after taking off.
He is survived by a wife and twin 7-year-old daughters.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern confirmed two DOC staff members had died in the incident and director general Lou Sanson said he was "devastated".
Do. We are still trying to come to terms with [the] tragedy," he said.
Sanson confirmed reports the helicopter was travelling towards Haast to take part in a Tahr culling operation.
Ardern and Conservation Minister Eugenie Sage both extended their sympathies to the families, friends and colleagues of the victims.
"My heart goes out to the families and loved ones of all those who died in today's tragic crash,'' Ardern said.
"It's an absolute tragedy that these staff and the helicopter pilot, who were just going about their work, will never return home.
The helicopter crashed around 100m from the Clutha River and is clear of any apparent aerial hazards.
Burnt wreckage near a fence line and a tail section more than 100 meters away is all that remained of the helicopter piloted by Wallis.
Alan McKay, who was nearby when the crash happened, said from a distance it appeared there was nothing left of the helicopter and it looked like a campfire.
"There was virtually nothing left," he said.
"I'd say it's just a very very unfortunate accident. It's a sad day for Wanaka."
Men in high-visibility jackets spent yesterday afternoon scouring the surrounding area of the wreckage for parts of the helicopter.
There are still many unanswered questions, with many wondering how the crash occurred on a day when flying conditions were good.
A former DOC worker said it would surprise him if Wallis was at fault, describing him as a very talented pilot.
pilot error as Nick was super experienced and a really talented pilot."
An investigation has been launched by the Transport Accident Investigation Commission (TAIC).
TAIC chief investigator of accidents Captain Tim Burfoot told media very little was known about the incident.
Four TAIC investigators travelled to Wanaka last night and would work at the scene from first light today.
Emergency services attended the crash site and police later confirmed three people had been onboard with no survivors.
Otago Lakes-Central area commander Inspector Olaf Jensen said the victims' families had been notified and police were working to support them.
"We acknowledge this is the second helicopter crash in the Wanaka area in recent times and the impact this will have on the local community," he said.
The helicopter is believed to have been under lease to Alpine Helicopters, which is owned by the Wallis family.
The Otago Daily Times understands police officers met with Sir Wallis, who had spent the past month in hospital with poor health, to inform him of the incident.
Last night members of the Wallis family were seen consoling each other at a Wanaka Airport hangar.


Of course, as an Uglies fan, I was in fits of joy (quiet, pew-located, sitting-still fits of joy). It also struck me how the most everyday things can inspire such incredible stories. No one reading Uglies would ever imagine its roots were in an LA doctor's office and a reference to Tom Cruise's teeth, but they were! That dentist has NO idea what she's done. Probably a good thing, as she'd want royalties.
The success of Uglies basically gave Westerfeld license to do anything he wanted with his next creation. The result of this creative freedom was Leviathan, a steampunk (the wiki on steampunk is great; read it) novel set during World War I — an alternate World War I. Not just historical events are alternate. Technology is alternate — Charles Darwin discovered DNA and The Origin of Species is a how-to manual of genetic manipulation. The result is that in 1914 engineers have created these huge beasts-machines as war weapons. One is "the Leviathan, a massive and famous air-beast, which is mainly modelled after a whale, but is actually a massive ecosystem" (from the wiki).
The main characters in Leviathan are Prince Aleksander of Hohenburg, who is the fictional son of Archduke Ferdinand (Ferdinand didn't have a son named Aleksander), and Deryn Sharp, a girl who dresses as a boy so she can enlist in the British Army. Westerfeld was fascinated with the fact that the deaths of only two people, the Archduke and his wife, snowballed into a worldwide conflict that killed millions of people. "When a parent dies," he said, "it's like the world is broken. Can you imagine what is must be like for Ferdinand and Sophie's children, to have their personal family tragedy actually break the world?" And that's how he decided Aleksander would tell the story. Similarly, in his studies of previous wars (can you tell this guy is a history and technology geek? I love it!), he kept encountering stories of women who wanted to enlist in the armed forces, so they disguised themselves as men. One woman in the Civil War kept up the guise so well that years in, she went to her fellow soldiers and said, "You have known me as a brave, honorable soldier, have you not? Well guess what. I'm a woman! We're just as good as you; you should let us vote!" And they sent her to the mental hospital. Le sigh. So he decided that would make a great character — a girl who has to keep the secret of her gender at peril to her life.
The other aspect of Leviathan that makes it unique is that it is illustrated. Nowadays, as children get older and graduate to more mature books, they say, "This looks boring. There are no pictures!" And the well-meaning adults say, "That's because you use your imagination!" (Like Belle tells Gaston in Beauty and the Beast!) But that hasn't always been true. It used to be normal for adult books to have illustrations. To make his point, he put up an illustration of Louisa Musgrove falling off the rock in Persuasion by Jane Austen. I DIED — did he really use Jane Austen? He has no idea how happy that made me. I think this is the exact image he used. I've seen this image before; I think it's fairly famous in the world of Austen illustrations.
Why did illustrating novels fall out of fashion? Why, the advent of the camera. There used to be illustrators running around who would draw everything we nowadays take pictures of — trials, birthday parties, etc. The camera basically rendered the illustrating profession useless, so there were no illustrators to illustrate novels. This meant that novels became text-only.
To make Leviathan look like it could have been published in this alternate 1914, complete with 1914ish illustrations, Westerfeld worked with a Canadian illustrator named Keith Thompson. His work is incredibly detailed and vibrant. I am not finding any examples of his work from Leviathan (go figure, copyright much?), but here is a cover for Leviathan he drew that they almost used. This much better represents his drawing style than the cover they ended up using.
I was in nerd heaven listening to Westerfeld explain how he came up with the ideas for these books and how they were shaped by his different interests in history and war and technology. Now I need to actually go read Leviathan and Behemoth! Reading them after hearing from the author how the books came about will be fascinating — it's not often one gets to read a book with that approach.

Hurricane . . . just the word brings to mind the power of these natural disasters. Humans watch the news and know of impending arrival. We board up windows and gather supplies. We might huddle in our homes or go inland. Then we wait for the storm to arrive. But what do wild animals do? Do they know when a storm is coming? If so, how do they prepare? This book explains how nine animals sense, react, and prepare for a hurricane. Based on research or observations, the brief portraits are explained in simple, poetic language for children of all ages.
This nonfiction picture book with a cuddle factor includes a 6-page For Creative Minds section in the back of the book and a 50-page cross-curricular Teaching Activity Guide online. Ready, Set . . . WAIT! is vetted by experts and designed to encourage parental engagement. Its extensive back matter helps teachers with time-saving lesson ideas, provides extensions for science, math, and social studies units, and uses inquiry-based learning to help build critical thinking skills in young readers. The Spanish translation supports ELL and dual-language programs. The interactive ebook reads aloud in both English and Spanish with word highlighting and audio speed control to promote oral language skills, fluency, pronunciation, text engagement, and reading comprehension.
Vetters: Thanks to Erica Rule, Outreach Coordinator, and Neal Dorst, Research Meteorologist, both of NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory, for verifying the hurricane information.

Sammenhængen mellem COVID-19 og graviditet – eller effekten af en COVID-19-infektion på graviditet – er ikke helt kendt på grund af manglen på pålidelige data.
Hvis der er øget risiko for gravide kvinder og fostre, har det hidtil ikke været let at fastslå (sep./okt. 2020).

Forudsigelser baseret på lignende infektioner som SARS og MERS antyder, at gravide kvinder har en øget risiko for alvorlig infektion, men resultater fra undersøgelser til dato (sep./okt. 2020) viser, at kliniske egenskaber ved COVID-19 lungebetændelse hos gravide kvinder lignede dem rapporteret fra ikke-gravide voksne.

I maj 2020 var der ingen data, der tydede på en øget risiko for abort på grund af COVID-19, og studier for SARS og MERS viser ikke et forhold mellem infektion og abort eller tab i andet trimester.

I April 2020 var det endnu uklart, om tilstande der opstår under graviditet – herunder graviditetsdiabetes, hjertesvigt, trombofili (hyperkoagulabilitet) og hypertension – kan udgøre yderligere risikofaktorer for gravide kvinder i forhold til ikke-gravide kvinder. Fra de begrænsede tilgængelige data forekommer lodret transmission (mor til baby) i tredje trimester sandsynligvis ikke eller forekommer kun meget sjældent. Der var endnu ingen data om tidlig graviditet.

De fleste gravide der smittes, får et mildt forløb, men enkelte bliver svært syge. I Danmark i perioden juni-november 2020 døde ét barn under graviditeten eller kort efter fødslen mens moderen var smittet med coronavirus. 8 gravide blev svært syge med coronavirus. I samme periode i 2021 døde 11 børn mens moderen var smittet med delta-varianten under graviditeten. 31 gravide blev svært syge, heraf 29 uden vaccine. I November 2021 var 57% af gravide vaccinerede.
Den 21. juli 2021 anbefalede Sundhedsstyrelsen at gravide vaccineres, og at sikkerheden er den samme som for ikke-gravide.

Common Hope COVID-19 Updates
8.7.2020 UPDATE
As the impact from Covid-19 continues to evolve, I share this update with you with hope that you and your family are safe and healthy. August 17th marks four full months of fast and furious pivoting and transition to meet the needs of Common Hope families during this pandemic. Hope continues to be a source of strength for us, and for those we serve.
We have learned so much about the stamina and resilience of both our families and our staff. First, I want to thank you for walking alongside us during this time. Your generosity and support refuels us each day as we continue our efforts to have meaningful impact on the way our families tackle the ripple effect of the pandemic. I also want to share an update on what's happening in Guatemala and confirm for you that our work has never been more important.
For those of you who are Sponsors of a student and their family, you will be receiving a communication from them in the coming week. We have just finished translating more than 3,000 letters that were dictated, photographed, and sent via electronic messaging for you. For most, their families have been affected by lack of work, an inability to purchase ample food for the family, the struggle for their children to learn remotely in an environment with very limited connectivity, or a combination of all of these. Their messages are heartfelt, and can be heartbreaking. Please know that we continue to take steps to alleviate these issues and the stress that accompanies them.
As a direct result of the information we've received in these correspondences, Common Hope is in the process of implementing the purchase and delivery of a fourth relief package for families. It again includes ample food staples and hygiene products. This time we are also including seeds for fast producing vegetables that will allow families to grow food of their own to provide an ongoing source of nutrition.
Our social workers are in regular contact with our families, and we have health and socio-emotional support resources for those who need them. We are just completing health consults, updated lab work and medicine delivery for those patients with chronic health conditions, and continue to provide education support for homework, computer lab access, and data plans for students who need assistance. In addition, all families with preschool and primary school children have received delivery of an education kit to support learning at home. For students, it is unlikely they will return to the classroom this school year in Guatemala, which is normally completed in October. We will continue to foster their engagement in learning with activities included in their education kits, and shared on our Chispudos network. For 860 families with the greatest food insecurity, they received additional food relief. All of these activities were based on responses received during a series of social work interviews I have told you about in previous updates.
Guatemala is in the early stages of re-opening, with some public transportation available and longer days/shorter curfews. This will allow many to begin working again, and that means better ability to provide for their families.
There is no one untouched by the impact of Covid-19. We are grateful to have sustained our programs despite the economic impact resulting from our inability to host visitors in Guatemala, hold our annual Noche de Colores benefit, and introduce new friends and family to join our mission through these and other events. We are making it work, despite the impact on the revenue needed to fulfill our programming. We remain hopeful, because of you.
In the next four months we need your help to continue to meet the needs of our families. Please consider joining us for any or all of the following ways to promote hope and opportunity in Guatemala:
Walk for Hope – Join our first ever virtual walk to raise awareness and funds for Covid Relief
Sponsorpalooza in September – Sponsor a student, become a relief sponsor
Write a note of encouragement to your student and their family
Give a gift to our Covid Relief efforts, to support the greatest needs of our families – food, connectivity, health and education support.
If you've given all you can, we thank you. If you can share a little bit more, we thank you. However you can help, we are grateful. Together we will continue to make hope a source of strength for Guatemala.

Dear friends of Common Hope,
We anticipated this day would arrive, and sadly we are now seeing COVID-19 virus cases in the communities we serve, including two members of the Common Hope family.
Our social workers are supporting these families as they navigate working directly with the Ministry of Health for further testing, treatment and recovery. Common Hope is not currently allowed to intervene for health care for those diagnosed with the virus, but our medical staff remains diligent in understanding how best to prevent, monitor, and prepare for what is to come. We are concerned with the capacity of the health care system in Guatemala, even with the many precautions in place to prevent the spread of the virus. Our social workers will, as always, do what is possible to provide ongoing support and advocacy for each family.
If a student or family member has been diagnosed with COVID-19, Common Hope will not provide this information to sponsors. As in the U.S. this practice maintains the privacy of our families and also reserves our social work resources for family support. As always, we will leave it up to each family to choose whether or not to share health information in their letters. Your continued support of all families and your encouraging words go a long way. We hope you share your kindness by sending a note in the link below.
You may ask what we can do. We will continue to accompany our families during these challenging times–
Providing food and other relief
Providing access to tele-medicine for physical and emotional health
Creating education and distance learning opportunities for students
And improving connectivity to better serve our families and help our staff be more accessible to all of our families
We are grateful that we were able to deliver additional relief baskets to families last week and we are in the process of preparing education kits for all families with preschool and primary school students. These resources will be delivered by mid-July and will include games and LEGOS as birthday gifts for our students in order to provide resources that are both fun and engaging and also reinforce reading and math skills while learning at home. With your help we've been able to deliver on the new plans we've put in place as we continue to pivot our programs to deliver on our mission. Thank you for making that possible.
The families we serve need our support more than ever. We all hope that this virus will quickly run its course and the people of Guatemala remain healthy. However you share your intentions – prayers, well wishes, and positive thoughts are always welcome.
I hope you and your family continue to be healthy and safe,
Send a hope note to a family
Give to COVID-19 Response Efforts
I hope this message finds you and your families safe and healthy. Since my last update, there is much to share. We completed the delivery of Hope Kits filled with food staples, face masks, hygiene supplies, and educational materials to all 1,656 families we work with in Guatemala. Thank you for making those initial gifts of hope possible – impacting over 14,000 brothers, sisters, moms, dads, grandparents and more.
There is much to share with you on this day as our work evolves daily and the impact of Covid-19 continues.
As of this week there are 1,342 cases in Guatemala and a reported 29 deaths. To our concern, the number of cases jumped significantly over the last two days – from 62 to 143, despite strong measures to slow the spread of the virus.
Fortunately, we still have no confirmed cases among Common Hope families or staff.
Guatemala enforced even stronger restrictions last night, mandating that our colleagues and families be in a lockdown in their homes.
Travel within the country is limited and face mask usage is required in public. International travel to/from Guatemala continues to be suspended and we cannot host visitors and volunteers for the foreseeable future.
Beyond this weekend's mandated quarantine, a curfew exists requiring residents to be in their home bewteen 6pm and 4am daily.
Businesses, schools and public transportation is closed and grocery stores and other "essential" services have limited hours and open times.
The country's COVID-19 response is updated weekly by the President. Originally, these updates were provided on Sunday evenings. This week, however, the new quarantine and regulations were shared on Thursday.
Given the continued closures and safety measures, we are working fast and furious to generate innovative and creative solutions for supporting our families and delivering our mission during this crisis. It has become imperative to find answers in the face of uncertainty, pivot program delivery and meet our families where they are. Social workers have been resilient and tireless in their efforts to help our families. They have completed a series of five different 'check-ins' with families and their work has allowed us to identify the following priorities in our response efforts:
Food Insecurity. Food is available in Guatemala, but decreased income has effected the ability of families to purchase what they need. Common Hope social workers have identified those families with the greatest need and we are preparing additional food baskets for 860 families that we'll begin delivering next week.
Health – Physical, Emotional, and Educational. Creating a "holistic health" approach has become increasingly important for families and staff. Our Antigua clinic staff continue to lead the development and implementation of safety protocols for those delivering programs. In addition, the creation of our tele-medicine resources has been and continues to be a critical resource. Our work to support the physical health of families, in accordance with the directive of the Guatemala Ministry of Health is imperative during this pandemic. We've also dedicated resources to address address anxiety and emotional health challenges utilizing Common Hope social worker expertise and our psychologists as well. Lockdown and financial stress are definitely weighing on our families and our staff during this time. Our goal is to support their mental health, as well as their physical health. And our education team is on the frontlines of keeping their educational health at forefront as well.
Connectivity. Throughout this experience, we are more aware than ever just how critical it is to be 'connected', in so many ways. We know this here in the United States as we see our sons and daughters educational growth become dependent on the internet to deliver lessons and instruction; as we work from home or remotely. Being "connected" is a resource, it could be argued, we take for granted here – as we see just how imperative it is, too, for our families, students, and staff in Guatemala. And, just how difficult it can be to acquire. There are countless ways to demonstrate the ways we need to be connected.
As social workers used to rely on home visits – now we need cellphone contracts and increased number of minutes and wifi to ensure that we can connect with families via telephone. And, families need data plans, and in some cases, phones to ensure they can take social worker calls, access tele-health and homework helplines and their children can participate in distance learning required by the Ministry of Education. Many junior and senior high school students need even greater access to a data plan and/or computer or phone to complete homework. Our staff is reorganizing spaces at the project, scheduling appointments for the computer lab, and providing data plan minutes to others to ensure they can complete their required assignments.
The need for connectivity is among the highest during this crisis, not only at Common Hope, but among our peers serving families in Guatemala and across Latin America.
Educational Support. While school is not in session, our education team is piloting an innovative strategy for connecting with all of our preschool and primary school students via social media, ensuring they continue to build their foundational skills in math and reading – interacting in fun and engaging ways. More than 1,000 families will be invited to participate. I am eager to share more about our progress in this initiative in my next update – as the team is creating incredible solutions for safeguarding progress around reading and math skill development. As has been the case since the beginning of this crisis, our educational support team continues to support the homework hotline and help students whenever they need it.
Like so many, we are adapting and changing as quickly and efficiently as we can. Still, the economic impact of this crisis is real, both for families and for Common Hope.
In the coming weeks, we will be rolling out a campaign for this Covid -19 response. Ensuring that food insecurity, holistic health, connectivity and educational support needs are met as best as is possible in this crisis is something we hope that you will help with. We know that these times are hard for all of us. And, that the impact of the Covid1-19 is far-reaching and all-inclusive. It has always been our mission to bring hope and opportunity to those in poverty. Today, a new level of poverty confronts us in these efforts.
I thank you for all that have done and continue to do to make it possible for us to change the ways we serve our families and our students. I look forward to continuing to work with you in this way and to experience even greater success during this crisis. I hope that you will consider becoming a Relief Sponsor, participating in upcoming events like the golf tournament or supporting our Covid-19 response Campaign in the coming weeks.
Together, with HOPE as our source of Strength we will weather these storms…

We hope this note finds you and your loved ones safe and healthy, and that hope continues to be a source of strength for you as it does for all of us at Common Hope.
What you should know at this time:
As of April 15th, there were 196 confirmed cases of Covid19 in Guatemala, with 19 recovered and 5 deaths, which continues to be low compared to neighboring countries. We are grateful to report that there are no confirmed cases among Common Hope families or staff, although there was one case diagnosed in a village where we work. The case was confirmed not to be from community spread.
Guatemala's strong measures to contain the spread continue with its shelter in place and daily curfews extended through May 1st. Transportation and businesses remain closed, and travel between departments isn't allowed so many are no longer able to work as a result. We continue to postpone our Vision Teams and visitors because of closed borders.
In addition, it is now a requirement to wear a mask when in public, and there are fines for those who do not comply. Fortunately, we were able to include masks for every family member in our Hope Kits that we continue to deliver to families this week.
Our social workers continue to be in contact with our families, and are learning that there is increased concern that there is enough food to eat so our Hope Kits are arriving at just the right time.
We began delivering Hope Kits to families two weeks ago, and our social workers and team members have been overwhelmed by the gratitude from our families as they received food staples, cleaning supplies, needed medicines and educational materials for each child, customized to their age level. Your messages of support in each basket are treasured, and families have responded with messages of hope for you in return:
…Thanks for being the light that shines in this difficult moment…
…I am asking God that soon we can go back to school to finish my 6th grade and go to 7th grade. My goals are: to continue studying to graduate from high school, get a job and help my mom. Right now, my mom has no job because of this situation. I hope you are well at your home. Sponsors, I trust that we will move on from this illness.
…I am writing to say thank you for all your help, for what I have gotten for me and for my family. I would like to say that in God we will move on from this illness. Thank you for your support…
…I would like to give thanks to Common Hope and to my Sponsors for all the help you have given to us in this difficult time that we are living. May God spring on you and your family infinite blessings and may he protect you from all type of illnesses…
On behalf of all of our families and every team member, thank you! Our families need us now more than ever before, and we're able to respond because of your generous support. We still need your help – if you haven't tried sponsorship before, or know someone who might consider it – you can become a temporary Relief Sponsor for a family whose kids currently do not have sponsors.
Our hearts are with all those affected by this crisis. May you and your family continue to be safe and healthy.
As before, I hope this email finds you and your family healthy in these unprecedented times. "Hope is my source of strength" was the centering thought from my favorite podcast this week, and it fits so well with the good work that our teams are doing both in Guatemala and the US to continue to bring hope to our families.
Guatemala continues to be proactive in keeping people at home, and has added a curfew from 4p.m. to 4a.m. every day, which is being reinforced with fines for those who don't comply. There are currently 20 cases confirmed in Guatemala, and gratefully none of our families or staff have been diagnosed as of this writing.
By Monday of this week our social workers had spoken directly with 1,028 (62%) of our families, and plan to have connected with everyone before the end of this week. They are learning that:
The majority of families are staying at home, and have a good understanding of what the President is asking of them and why during this health crisis.
Our social workers are asking each family about their physical and emotional health, their work stability, and whether or not their children have access to their school's educational materials.
The greatest concerns families have shared include understanding how they can prevent illness, inability to work during this time, and a lack of enough food for their families as a result.
Our clinic team began delivering needed medicine to patients last Friday, and has begun accepting telemedicine calls to assess health issues. They will refer patients to the designated health centers for respiratory or COVID19 symptoms as required by the Ministry of Health, and will help find needed transport. They will also diagnose and assist them with other health issues remotely, and our psychology team members are providing mental health support as needed.
We have received verbal approval from the Ministry of Health to bring medicines and food to families' homes within curfew hours.
With hope as our source of strength, Common Hope will address these needs by providing every single family a HOPE KIT over the next few weeks. Hope Kits are Common Hope's way of sharing we know this is a hard time, but there is hope. Each kit includes: food staples, bleach, soap, acetaminophen, and information on how to stay healthy during this time. It will also include educational materials to ensure students continue their learning while they are at home and not in school, and with your help a message of encouragement in every basket.
Please consider funding a Hope Kit for a family in need and send them a hopeful message.
P.S. For those of you with students on track to graduate in Guatemala, you will be receiving your invitation to join us in Antigua for graduation in November. We are hopeful that graduation will continue as planned, and will keep you posted if anything changes.
Again, we start by sharing our hopes that you and your family are safe and healthy as we navigate Covid-19 and become accustomed to social distancing in our every day lives.
Since last week when I messaged you, leadership in both Guatemala and the US have been responding to the continuous movement around COVID19 virus and efforts to combat its spread. As an organization, health and safety of our families, volunteers, visitors, donors and staff continues to be our foremost concern.
Since my last communication, there are now 7 confirmed Covid-19 cases in Guatemala. Still, we are grateful to report that there are no confirmed cases among Common Hope families, staff, and/or visitors to date.
Progression of the virus continues to evolve rapidly, and we are grateful for the strong preventive approach that the Guatemalan President is implementing for the people of Guatemala. Borders have been closed to all visitors, including the US and Canada. Everyone has been encouraged to stay home, all schools and educational programs are closed, public organizations and businesses with the exception of grocery stores, pharmacies, and take-out restaurants are closed, and public transportation has been shut down. As a result, our regular programming has been suspended through the end of March. The President plans to revisit this decision in 7 days.
All of our visitors to Guatemala have returned home safely, and we are rescheduling teams whose trips had to be postponed due to travel restrictions.
Like so many, our families are worried and concerned. And, we are working tirelessly to determine how best to continue to provide HOPE and OPPORTUNITY during this time.
Health Care All respiratory and Covid-19 cases are required to go to the government hospitals, so we are creating new ways to deliver health information and services. We will begin tele-medicine with families to assess their health issues and either refer according to Ministry of Health requirements or serve those with chronic health conditions and unique cases as allowed. We are establishing dedicated telephone access for the clinic to support this, and we have also assigned three clinical therapist staff to attend to the emotional and mental health of our families.
Social Work Our social work program has never been more important. Right now the social work team is fully deployed and charged with contacting every family both to check-in and also to provide education on how to avoid spreading the virus. Ensuring these staff keep themselves and our families safe is an incredible challenge. We are purchasing mobile phones, calling minutes for existing phones, and setting up hot spots to access the internet since they will be unable to meet face-to-face.
Systems We are also busy ensuring that other staff can work remotely whenever possible, adding technical capability to do so. Unlike the US, most staff and families do not have internet access in their homes, and many do not have mobile phones with data plans for viewing email and messaging. Our leadership in Guatemala is busy ensuring that staff who need access and communications have it available to work remotely where possible to limit travel to/from our project sites.
Sponsor/Donor Relations Teams in the US and in Guatemala are defining new ways to communicate with sponsors/donors. While we cannot carry letters to Guatemala right now, we can receive electronic letters via our website and can translate those letters to be delivered to families as soon as we are able. Please write a letter to your sponsored student via our website!
Visitors and Events We are working with our upcoming teams and event planning to modify our schedules as necessary. For those of you in the Midwest, we have rescheduled our Noche de Colores event from May 14th to October 14th in St. Paul, and hope that you are able to join us at that time.
In addition to the immediate areas we're addressing in Guatemala, our Education support teams are also planning for how we could help keep students on track with their studies while school and educational programs are closed to group activities. We're proactively considering where we will have savings during this closure in order to reallocate resources in anticipation of hardships for our families and for our donors as a result of this global crisis.
Our US Office is closed to visitors at this time with most of our staff working remotely. We are available via phone and email if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you again for your commitment to the families we serve, in particular as we navigate these uncharted waters.
We hope that this email finds you and your family healthy and unaffected by the spread of the Covid-19 virus. As I'm sure you are aware, it has been a growing global concern over the past few weeks, and information and progression of the virus is evolving rapidly. Over the last few weeks we have heard from many of our amazing Common Hope family members – sponsors, vision team members, volunteers – inquiring on our families, students and travelers. Common Hope has been monitoring the situation closely and our leadership in both Guatemala and the US have been preparing for how we will respond to the COVID19 virus as it continues to spread.
As an organization, health and safety of our families, volunteers, visitors, donors and staff is our foremost concern. Common Hope has developed a multi-phase plan to manage our operations as risk levels progress in the US, Guatemala and for visitor travel.
Guatemala has no confirmed cases in Guatemala, or among Common Hope families, staff, and/or visitors
While this is the case, the Guatemalan government yesterday mandated a 7 day quarantine for anyone arriving from Europe, and it is possible that soon the same could be done for visitors arriving from US states that have confirmed cases.
As a result, Common Hope is suspending visitor travel through Semana Santa/Easter weekend of April 13th.
We have been in communication with our pending travelers and will continue to do so, with the plan to reschedule their trips at a later time.
As of today, Common Hope is continuing normal program operations for our students and families AND a heightened safety, cleaning, and hygiene protocol according to CDC recommendations. This is continuously being reviewed, and we will continue to adapt as the virus progresses.
For those of you who have written to your sponsored students, we will translate and transport those letters as quickly as possible given travel constraints. If you want to write electronically via the website, those communications will continue to be delivered until further notice.
The US State Department raised the global travel advisory to Level 3: reconsider travel. Read it here: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/ea/travel-advisory-alert-global-level-3-health-advisory-issue.html.
We continue to monitor advisories here and in Guatemala and any restriction impacting travel to/from Guatemala will be communicated directly to those impacted.
Our hearts are with those families affected around the world. Thank you for your understanding as we continue to keep everyone's safety and health at the forefront of our work.

About Christian Vieri
Christian "Bobo" Vieri (Italian pronunciation: [ˈkristjam ˈbɔːbo ˈvjɛːri]; born 12 July 1973) is an Italian former professional footballer who played as a centre forward. Vieri was named in the FIFA 100, a list of the 125 greatest living footballers selected by Pelé as a part of FIFA's centenary celebrations. A prolific goalscorer, for a number of years, he was regarded as one of the best strikers in Europe, leading to him becoming the world's most expensive player in 1999 when Inter Milan paid Lazio £32 million (€43 million) for his services. Something of a footballing nomad, Vieri played for no fewer than 12 clubs throughout his career, mainly in Italy, but also in Spain and France. He started his career with Torino in 1991, but his most notable and successful spells were those at Juventus, Atlético Madrid, Lazio and Inter, clubs with which he won several honours. As well as picking up several winners medals during his career, Vieri also claimed many individual awards including the Pichichi Trophy and Capocannoniere awards for the league's top scorer in Spain and Italy respectively, and the Serie A Italian Footballer of the Year twice. At international level, Vieri scored 23 goals in 49 appearances for Italy between 1997 and 2005, and is the joint ninth-highest goalscorer for his national team, alongside Francesco Graziani. He is also Italy's highest ever goalscorer in the FIFA World Cup, along with Roberto Baggio and Paolo Rossi, with a combined nine goals from nine matches at the 1998 and 2002 editions of the tournament; he also took part at Euro 2004.

Happy Thursday! The DC area was bracing for a winter storm today and the chaos began early. People left work early, traffic got a bit crazy, and preparations were underway for a Friday of being stranded at home...yet it is 10:00 pm and not a snow flake has fallen...not even a rain drop.
Sasha and I actually had a really nice, long walk outside. No snow storm this time, just another cold winter night!
Here are my eats today!
Same ole: Banana omelet with almond butter smeared on top. I ate it so fast that I forgot to take a picture!
I had the other half of my roasted chicken frittata from last night on top of fresh spinach dressed with lemon juice and olive oil and a diced up avocado. I really heart avocados! I wish they grew on trees! Oh wait...they do?!
Mixed things up a bit for dinner and went out! One of my favorite places in DC to go for tea and their outrageously good oatmeal salted cookies is Teaism. The Old Town location is right next door to Trader Joes, so I usually make it part of my grocery trip to stop in at Teaism for a cookie before I grocery shop. Tonight I sadly turned a cookie down but found some food options that were just as delicious. Teaism has an eclectic menu that is a mix of bento boxes, curries and tandoor breads. The menu itself is just fun to read! There are a few location in DC and the Old Town location is newly opened and rarely filled with people. It is a great space that is quiet and serene. I secretly hope people don't find out about how great it is so it can stay quiet and serene!
After studying the menu before I got there ( a great tip for successfully going out to eat while on the Whole30), I decide to order the kelp noodles! Yes, first time for me to ever eat kelp noodles. I am not a fan of sea weed, so I was a little hesitant about kelp noodles, but they ended up tasting nothing like the ocean and really absorbed the flavors of everything that was mixed it. To add some protein, I also added a side of grilled salmon. Delicious!
In the kelp salad was carrots, cucumbers and beets (all mixed in olive oil). Beets were also a first for me tonight and I think I like them! Like them a lot!
I am certainly going to look for kelp noodles when I go to the grocery store next time. I really liked the texture and they would make a great addition to any salad or stir fry!
No pictures, but had the standard small bag of almonds, apple and some dry mango after dinner.
Another day down, we are in double digits tomorrow!
I liked the term Teaism! Quiet and serene :) I love noodles.. Kelp noodles, I will try it for sure!

Acorn Department Store 1928-c1933. Cincinnati Bargain 1922-c1933.
The Cincinnati Bargain Store conducted business on Broad St., alongside of the Acorn Department Store, from 1928 to approximately 1933.
If it doesn't look familiar to you, perhaps you will recognize the facade from when it was Broad Street Furniture.
After the Cincinnati Store closed, the J. Fred Johnson Store moved in. The furniture store came next followed by an antiques store.
In February 2015, a crew began to remove the modern facade. The original windows, brick work, and paint, though damaged, were revealed.
I looked forward to the black, industrial adhesive being washed away and the brick details being repaired. But, alas, this month painters arrived on the scene.
Everyday I am grateful to the downtown business owners who have painstakingly, and at great expense, restored the beauty of original Kingsport architecture. But, for now, I'm in mourning.
Feature image: Painted brick going to heaven.

I join you in mourning. And seriously, who picked the color!?!
I will join you as well. My husband and I were downtown not too long ago admiring the old brick and commenting how cool to see the old business names. It's sad that they just painted right over it! I agree, who did pick that paint color?!?
That is some kind of awful! Why is everything turning puke green these days?

After the explosion
A Syracuse junior wants to maintain a connection to Beirut, Lebanon, by developing film projects that cast light on her home country's beauty.
Story and Video by Nina Bridges
On August 4, 2020, a massive explosion devastated Beirut, Lebanon, causing more than 200 deaths and 6,000 injuries.
Maria Raad was with her friends just outside Beirut when she heard the eruption that would later be attributed to ammonium nitrate stored in the capital city's port.
The Syracuse University film junior said it felt like everything she knew was gone in a second.
"The only thing that allows me to accept it is that I'll always have the stories and memories of that place," Raad said.
Raad, who was considering going back to Lebanon after college, is reconsidering her plans. She may opt instead to maintain a connection to her home country, by developing film projects that shed light on Lebanon's beauty that's rarely shown in mainstream media.
Motivated by a fear of forgetting, Raad is coping with the tragedy by looking back on her memories from the places that no longer exist.
